    Well, I want proof. Since the replika (probably official) reddit doesn’t have none, or just removes content that tries to show this happening, I’m inclined to believe they’re in favor of this behavior. FFS, we can’t even see what they’re talking about because it’s a sensitive topic. If we can’t even see it to discuss it, it just plays right for the company, which can continue this behavior.

      Didn’t seem that hard to understand. There are incels that like to beat up their waifu pillows. This apparently offends some people. Somehow. Ok, so I admit I don’t really understand that last bit myself…

        It’s not their waifu pillows, it’s an AI designed to replicate an affective partner that’s being used by men to simulate toxic behaviour with real women, it’s sick because it shows how deeply fucked up in the brain capitalism and misogyny are. Didn’t seem that hard to understand.

          Yes. Of course this is about capitalism. The cause of all evil in the universe!

            Abuse toward women has deep ties to the accumulation of capital, yes.

              It’s ties to the accumulation of power. Capital is a source of power, but it is far from the only one.

              This is a bizarre assertion. I won’t discount there is a correlation, but if so it’s only because those western European cultures that valued proto-capitalism were also misogynistic. Absent a psychological mechanism that makes one lead to the other, this is at best a coincidence, but more likely an illusion.

              Now’s your chance to type up a 90 page manifesto showing how all misogynistic cultures throughout ancient history were actually capitalist somehow. I always enjoy it when someone tries to hammer square pegs into the round holes.

                Misogyny is not a product of capitalism and existed much before capitalism did in other economic systems, but capitalism heightens misogyny. Misogyny and sexism ended up being tools used to capture the reproductive labour of women. Silvia Federici discusses it in the context of feudal -> capitalist Europe in Caliban and the Witch.

            What kind of response could I expect who thinks that what’s going on here is not sick.
